its alright, i didnt think u were rude at all. i dont hate my english IO, but the chinese IO on the other hand...

are u reacting to my situation? im doing ibdp so there are oral exams for languages. ur school system could be different tho.

i dont have to worry about remembering, bc our IO allows us to bring a bullet point sheet. its only 10 bullet points, but enough for me. im mainly worried about talking too fast or too slow and stuttering. at least i did well according to the teacher.

i just finished my oral exam. the teacher said i did well. i can finally relax now.

the dialogue sound effects.

just installed an omori keyboard sound mod to my opera gx browser... it tickles my brain in all the right ways.

i was sleeping anyway. its alright.

i missed the 100th page but at least we got there.

99th page... so close.

my math exam went well, and im also the only student that got one specific question correct. u just need to know how to use the calculator to solve it but the majority of the class didnt know... apparently.

i have a math exam today and i barely studied. its so illuover.

i dont want to study bio and genetics bc it will only drive me away from my interests. i want my hobbies to stay as hobbies, rather than making them my major or career. i want to preserve to fun in it, rather than making them professional. since i am hyperfixating on snakes, after i finish researching and ranting about them, i dont feel refreshed at all. i just feel tired and i need to be alone. thats one of the drawbacks of having hyperfixations. good for your friend though.

for real. i love infodumping about snakes.

im willing to get a pet snake bc my soon-to-be roommate wants one. we want either a black pine snake or black kingsnake. both of them are fairly easy to take care of, we just need to properly prepare.

yes. like ball pythons and corn snakes. they are all amazing beginner pet snakes that have a naturally docile personality. the diverse morphs of ball pythons also made them really popular amongst pet trades. there may not be a lot special about them, but they are still very fun snakes to handle. gaboon viper is very slow moving indeed, one of the slowest. but their striking speed is one of the quickest. u can also search up puff adder walking, they belong to the same genus called 'bitis'. however, i see that puff adders are slightly quicker than gaboon vipers. i actually held one in a pet store before, its a white sided bull snake. they can get very big, but the one i held is very curious, active and not bitey at all. a lot of snakes hiss and mimic other venomous species as a defense mechanism, they just want to intimidate you before they start striking, but even then its usually mock strikes... meaning that they dont open their mouths when they do it, they just want you to back away.
